The Daughter Of Destiny Broke Off The Engagement? I Married Her Sister Instead.
Chapter 44 Fragrant Street Is Yihong, The World Is Melancholy
"We will never separate again, wuwuwu!"
As she spoke, Xiaoyuehan couldn't control herself and burst into tears.
Seeing her daughter crying, Chu Qianqiu felt extremely distressed, but didn't know how to comfort her.
"You silly girl...where in the world is there a daughter who doesn't marry a husband?"
"No, no, I won't!"
"If one day Daddy doesn't want me anymore, I won't live, I won't find another man!"
"Fool, why would I not want you?"
"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this."
Patting the little girl's head, Chu Qianqiu could only cut off this topic for now.
He was somewhat surprised by his daughter's reaction, but she was still young, hadn't truly seen the world, and hadn't reached the stage of adolescence where girls start to have romantic feelings. It was understandable for her to say these things, so he treated it as her innocent babbling.
...
The two continued walking, gradually forgetting what they had just talked about, and encountered many interesting things along the way.
Chu Qianqiu bought sugar-coated haws for his daughter to eat, bought paper toys for her to play with, and took her to see the animal circus and choose beautiful clothes at the cloth shop. After playing for a while, he also forgot about his own mission.
At this moment, Xiaoyuehan had her mouth covered in sugar oil and held a paper dove in her hand, smiling happily.
To be honest, she hadn't experienced this kind of feeling in a long time.
Before, in the Heavenly Realm, her life was only about cultivation, and worldly happiness had long been far away.
Now, she suddenly realized that being an ordinary person was also quite enjoyable.
Mortals also had their own ways of entertainment. A thousand years was too long, and they cherished each day.
For ordinary people, since they couldn't experience the joy of immortality, it was not in vain to live each day to the fullest.
Thinking like this, she walked and stopped with her father, gradually arriving at an unfamiliar area in the southwest corner of Yuefeng City.
The spring breeze brushed the willows, and the fragrance of flowers filled the air.
There was a strong atmosphere of revelry here, and the people coming and going were all men dressed in various styles. They were either drinking from gourds or carrying folding fans and jade accessories, all with expectant expressions.
Chu Qianqiu was curious about where he had come to and why there were only men around.
Moreover, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't bought furniture yet, so he wanted to find a way back.
But at this moment, a soft and charming voice called out to him.
"Young master, come in and play."
A young woman dressed in a gorgeous red cheongsam, with flowers in her hair, greeted him.
He looked back and caught sight of a luxurious red building called "Yi Hong Yuan".
The color of Yi Hong was enchanting, with fragrant orchids overflowing, carved railings and jade shining, and vermilion lacquer accents.
The doors of the jade building were wide open, and male guests frequently came and went.
Around were placed porcelain bowls, with flowers blooming everywhere, and traces of powder and rouge scattered everywhere.
Just now, a woman outside the door called him down.
Near this woman, there were many beautiful women like her, their voices like singing birds, their bodies like graceful snakes, their smiles enchanting, making people linger.
These worldly women dressed boldly, maintaining elegance while partially covering their snowy bosoms, like a light veil enveloping blue smoke, graceful and charming, as the dusk approached.
Following the sound, Chu Qianqiu saw that most of the men passing by couldn't resist such a beautiful scene, their blood rushing in response to the seductive sounds, and they walked straight into the door of Yi Hong Yuan.
"Oh? Impressive!"
"So this kind of place is a brothel, I've only seen it in TV dramas before."
"But in my impression, I thought these women would act more refined, playing music and dancing lightly, first accompanying guests to taste fine wines, and then... "
"Cough, I thought too much."
He widened his horizons and pondered for a moment.
This was the first time Chu Qianqiu encountered such a social place in the cultivation world, which was quite eye-opening.
Of course, he was not tempted by beauty. Compared to Xue'er's radiant appearance, these women in the mortal world couldn't match her temperament at all.
They relied only on rouge to enhance their appearance and stayed in such places for a living. They were probably all pitiful people.
"Daddy, do you want to go in?"
Suddenly, Xiaoyuehan's cold voice sounded in his ear.
Startled by this cold voice, Chu Qianqiu couldn't help but shiver.
"No... I'm just looking."
Hastily taking his daughter away, he ran faster than a rabbit.
The women of Yi Hong Yuan felt a sense of loss when they saw the handsome young man they were paying attention to leave.
It had been a long time since they had seen such a handsome and refined young man, with excellent temperament and charming features.
This kind of person was clearly from a prestigious family and was probably also a cultivator with considerable strength.
The men they usually received were mostly vulgar and intoxicated with alcohol.
Those men were completely bewitched by beauty and couldn't even speak when they saw a woman.
If it weren't for the fact that they were not of good quality themselves, they would never want to come into contact with such men in their entire lives.
Unfortunately, fate has been unkind, and they have no other choice.
Everyone present here, in fact, has a wretched fate.
Some of them are widows whose husbands died in battle, leaving them with no support, so they had no choice but to seek refuge here.
Some of them have husbands who are alive but are addicted to gambling and squandering money, using them as collateral and selling them to others.
Among them, the one with the best fate is the orphan from Langcheng who was taken in by the madam and is now staying here to repay her kindness before she can leave.
In short, none of the women here willingly chose this profession.
They may be called geishas in a more flattering way, but in a harsher sense, they are just tools for satisfying desires.
Therefore, when they saw the young man who was not tempted by their beauty and left without looking back, their expressions were complicated.
On one hand, they admired the young man's self-control.
On the other hand, they were very envious.
They wished that in their next life, they could be born as men and no longer suffer the pain and obstacles of being in a female body.
...
After Chu Qianqiu left, he finally found a furniture store run by a carpenter in the city center.
There were all kinds of furnishings here, with a wide variety of options.
He waved his hand, indicating that he wanted to buy everything, without saying a word more than necessary.
The old carpenter who was watching the store was shocked and fell off his rocking chair, crawling on the floor to find his glasses.
"Young master, are you serious?" he asked, confirming multiple times.
"I can open a restaurant with all the furniture I have here. You..." he said.
"Don't ask, just tell me the price."
"Cough, twenty..."
"I have been a carpenter in Yuefeng City for a long time, and everyone here knows my craftsmanship. Plus, the furniture I make is all made of top-quality pomelo wood, black walnut wood, and cherry wood. It's normal for it to be a bit expensive."
The old man put on his glasses, stood up straight, and explained seriously, making a "two" gesture with his hand.
Chu Qianqiu nodded in understanding and immediately took out his storage ring, ready to make the payment.
"How could I find it expensive? It's quite cheap," he said with a smile.
"Young master, you might have misunderstood."
"I'm not talking about twenty taels of silver."
"I know."
"I'm not talking about twenty taels of gold either."
"Alright, enough, shut up, I understand."
"Uh, are you sure...?"
After a moment of silence, Chu Qianqiu directly threw a bag of spirit stones.
The old man opened the bag and counted them one by one, immediately dumbfounded.
There were indeed twenty pieces of low-grade spirit stones!
After being shocked for a long time, the old man finally regained his senses and wanted to thank the young man.
But he found that his store had already been emptied, and the young man had disappeared without a trace.
...
Chu Qianqiu was very fast in his actions.
After making the payment, he quickly moved all the furniture in the old man's store into his storage ring.
This system-given storage ring was very powerful. As long as he touched something he wanted to take away, it would immediately enter the ring.
"Daughter, our mission is complete. Let's go home!"
With a smirk, Chu Qianqiu felt relaxed and ready to return with a full load.
Little Yuehan hugged her father's head and played with his earlobe, whispering a question in a low voice.
"Daddy... are you not going to find a mistress anymore?"
She spoke like a devil's whisper, tickling people's ears.
Chu Qianqiu, who had forgotten about this, immediately felt embarrassed.
"You little brat, you remember it better than I do."
"If I were to find one, I would have to find someone who matches our status. I can't just bring any woman from the street home, right?"
"We're not in a hurry!"
"I know you're in a hurry, but you don't need to be."
Saying this, Chu Qianqiu jokingly let out a sigh of relief.
However, Little Yuehan seemed to have something more to say. She pointed her little finger behind them, aiming at a suspicious person.
"Really? I don't believe it."
"There's a woman who has been following us."
"It seems like she wants to become your mistress, Daddy."
